Chapter 67: Chapter 57 I have prepared a big surprise for them!
For Old Tang, the previous cases really were taken up casually, who would have thought there would be hidden dragons and crouching tigers like this.
But for Zhang Wei, this case truly solidified his reputation as the "jinx lawyer."
A perfectly normal person, nobody sues you for no reason, after all, under normal circumstances you wouldn't be able to access their bank transactions.
Yet after they sued you, they ended up in prison, and you still had to pay them over five thousand in compensation.
Zhang Wei felt mentally exhausted, if only he had agreed during mediation, then none of this would have happened.
Looking at the figure at the door, Zhang Wei had an illusion, an illusion of "why raise a second when you already have Yu."
Tang Fangjing naturally didn't care about these things, he instructed Luo Duancheng on what to pay attention to, meanwhile, he had already figured out the name of the company and its boss.
Jingzhou City Xiangkun Construction Engineering Co., Ltd., the boss's name was Yi Ruisheng.
Luo Duancheng knew just this much; he and a few coworkers had always been working for this company.
But then they stopped paying and upon asking the company, this Yi Ruisheng told them that the company was having problems with cash flow and asked them to wait, but the waiting led to no result.
After noting down this information in his phone, Tang Fangjing headed straight back to the law firm, and meanwhile, chatted with that online buddy "I love to play with colors" for a bit.
It was just some ordinary conversation, ever since the last time he had sent a private message saying "Bro, you're awesome," the two of them had intermittently chatted about various things.
This time the conversation was about whether there are really stupid lawyers in life.
Sitting in the office of the law firm, Old Tang's fingers flew over the phone, typing: "Bro, I'm telling you, don't doubt it, there really are such people."
"You don't believe it, right? I can't send you evidence from here, but I've seen it with my own eyes, I don't know what he was thinking, but I guess his client probably ended up learning how to sew."
After chatting for a while, Tang Fangjing put down his phone, and for some reason, felt that he got along well with this brother; on some issues, their views were as unconventional as his...
Anyway, it was just a chat buddy to talk to when he had some free time.
Days passed by, more and more people went back to their homes, and many colleagues in the law firm had already left, but Old Song was fine with it, he was a Jingzhou local.
Tang Fangjing sat at his desk, sorting through the information he had gathered.
Xiangkun Company was established five years ago with a registered capital of two million yuan, and there were two shareholders, Yi Ruisheng, and another person named Lei Peng.
The latter's subscribed capital was a full one million eight hundred thousand, while the former was two hundred thousand.
The legal representative was this Yi Ruisheng.
However, according to what he had heard from the legal community, Xiangkun Company's real boss was actually Lei Peng.
This information was relatively easy to obtain, but as for what President Lei was really like, that was still unknown.
Next would be the slow process of inquiring further. Fortunately, he had time on his hands, and in a place as big as Jingzhou, there were bound to be people who had heard of President Lei.
But now, he needed to think about how to deal with the Lawyers Association as the end of the year approached and the evaluation period drew near.
Without the official status of a lawyer, he would be constrained in everything he did, unable to conduct trials independently, and having to call on Old Song, his good-luck charm.
......
The fifteenth day of the first lunar month had passed, and these days were truly torturous for Tang Fangjing, suddenly everything stopped, he couldn't complete any assignments, watching as his life dwindled away with each passing day, it was a terrible feeling.
With nothing much to do, he simply spent his time on studying.
In his previous life, he was actually very proficient in criminal law, but not so much in civil law. Who knows what tasks would be assigned in this life, thus studying was indeed extremely necessary.
Just when Tang Fangjing was growing increasingly anxious, the law association finally sent the notification; it was time for their group of intern lawyers to start the first training session.
"Let's see, Handong University of Political Science and Law training, face-to-face instruction lasting fifteen days, plus eighty hours of online courses... pretty standard, and the training fee is 1950, still the same old routine."
The so-called training organized by the law association was mandatory for all intern lawyers—if you didn't participate, you couldn't take the assessment.
If you didn't take the assessment, then you couldn't complete your internship; it was as simple as that.
Was the law association running a charity?
Of course not. They charged for the training, and accommodation and meals were extra.
So, if you really got down to it, this so-called training and the fees were semi-compulsory, and whether the law association, as a social organization, could collect this money... it was a matter of opinion.
Old Song, who was nearby, spoke up, "So the notification arrived, did it? You're aware of the current situation. After all that's been done, nothing the law association does surprises me anymore."
Upon hearing this, Tang Fangjing responded with disdain, "Let them do whatever, I've been prepared for a long time. I'm not afraid if they play dirty."
Intrigued by this comment, Old Song's interest was piqued, "What have you prepared? Don't tell me you're really planning to sue—after all, the president of the law association is a big shot in the industry."
"Who knows?" Tang confidently replied, "Rest assured, I wouldn't dare to climb Liangshan without three parts confidence. If I dare to offend the law association, it means I'm truly fearless."
Without saying more, Tang Fangjing packed his bags and set off to report to Handong University of Political Science and Law.
Meanwhile, at the Jingzhou City Lawyers Association, Yin Deyuan, while sipping tea, smiled and said, "That Tang Fangjing should have arrived by now; I specifically placed him in the first session."
Han Chengli, putting down the phone, chuckled, "Yes, I just inquired. He has gone to the Politics and Law University and has paid and settled in."
Yin Deyuan was not at all surprised; if one wanted to be a lawyer, one had to pass this hurdle.
He was just a bit curious. Knowing full well that they had offended them and would definitely be put at a disadvantage, why wasn't he afraid at all?
Shaking his head, unable to figure it out, he knew that the law association had full suppression over intern lawyers—if they said you couldn't pass, then you definitely couldn't pass.
"Let's keep the training as usual but corner him during the assessment. What reason should we use..." Yin Deyuan mused.
Hearing this, Han Chengli smiled and suggested, "Why not say he lacks professional competence?"
Since you like to accuse others of being unprofessional online, alright then, we'll use that as a reason to corner you.
Our law association's assessments are completely legal; if you disagree, there's nothing you can do about it.
Yin Deyuan burst into laughter at the suggestion, "Old Han, that's a good idea. Let's settle on that."
At Handong Political Law University, the intern lawyer training had already begun, and the name Tang Fangjing was admired by many of the interns.
This was the big shot who dared to stand up to the law association during his internship and even made them lose a lot of face—an exemplary figure to us all!
However, while he was an exemplary figure, everyone subconsciously kept their distance from him—after all, the law association was not to be trifled with.
Old Tang didn't care about this at all; life was nearly at stake, why bother with these trivialities?
No surprises happened during the training period; it was just that the everyday classes were so lethargic that Old Tang had thought several times about having a serious discussion with the lecturers.
Finally, the training was over, and Tang Fangjing had submitted all the necessary materials to the law association. The intern lawyer interviews were about to begin.
He figured the law association would likely try to corner him, but it didn't matter; he had already prepared a significant surprise for them, a surprise big enough to turn the law association upside down.
As a former leader in the law association, Old Tang knew all too well about the ins and outs of the association.
